Re: [MBZ] [Okietalk] Fuel prices

We have Sam's Club here, no Costco conveniently close. I think Sam's is similar but Costco seems to be a bit nicer, from what I've heard. Even Sam's is a bit outside the radius of my normal drives so I rarely buy gas there. On Sat, Jun 8, 2024, at 12:35, Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes wrote: >

[MBZ] 722.6 wtf?

I have this 98 e320 that I have had for a while. A guy in town said it would not shift out of first and he replaced the conductor plate. He then drove it out here in limp mode and I reset it: it was also a little low on fluid. I topped it off for him but am pretty sure I way overfilled it. After

Is there a code for "transmission fluid level too high"? Simple enough experiment to drain and refill to spec, no? On Sat, Jun 8, 2024, at 15:39, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes wrote: > I have this 98 e320 that I have had for a while. A guy in town said it > would not shift out of first and he re

Re: [MBZ] 722.6 wtf?

I don’t believe overfilling would cause that unless it was majorly overfilled, and then again, I can’t think of a way that excessive ATF would cause a problem. When you overfill the fluid will cause cavitation, but even then the typical complaint is intermittent operation or slipping as the air

Vredestein Sprint Classics in 185R14 are a great choice for a 300SD, and it’s the original size. 195 70 14 works, but the choices are getting worse and worse. Except you can now get Pirelli CN36s in that size. I just put a set of Michelin MXV 185R14s on my 300SD… pricey but super cool. I put th
